Two days ago, Texas Democratic Rep. Sheila Jackson-Lee stood onstage at the Michael Jackson memorial service and said she would introduce a resolution in the House of Representatives honoring Jackson as a “global humanitarian.”

The idea prompted concern from House Democrats, thanks in part to the King Of Pop’s mixed legacy – one that encompassed both revolutionary music and repeated legal troubles. One Republican member of the House, Peter King, complained about the tributes to Jackson, deeming him a “pervert.” As Politico reported, Rep. John Yarmuth, a Kentucky Democrat, walked out of the House chamber when the Congressional Black Caucus called for a moment of silence for Jackson, saying the reaction to Jackson’s death had left him “nauseated.” (more)

    You know I’m sure once Ted Kennedy dies he will be memorialized even though no one was ever satisfied with his lame excuse for Chappaquiddick. Then let’s not forget good ol’ George Bush. Junior and his dad both need to go the way of Saddam but we know that won’t happen. Michael had nothing to hid and simply made a terrible choice in telling suspicious people that he allows kids to sleep with him. Ask any parent the stupid things they’ve done that could’ve been wrongfully misconstrued. The difference between him and the rest of us is we have the common sense not to tell stories of innocent behavior that people can take and twist into lies and perversion. He made a stupid choice and yes he had childish behavior. He was a kid trapped in an adult world at times. He was never a pedophile. I have personally seen and spoken to pedophiles in my work and trust me their sickness is darn near impossible to disguise. Quite often people who don’t see just don’t want to. Michael is very well known and has board access to children. Had he really been a pedophile trust me when I say this the numbers from alllllll over the world would have been staggering. Don’t believe me ask the “church”. They are recognized authorities on pedophiles.
